inlingua international school of languages based in Bern, Switzerland, has been in Chicago for several decades...

 “Where is the inlingua international office in Chicago?” Inlingua School of Languages in Chicago is still located at the corner of 200 West Madison Street and Wells Street, by the CTA “L” Brown Line Madison Station, in the West Loop, Downtown Chicago, Illinois 60606, Telephone (312) 641-0488. There are Spanish classes, French classes, German classes, Italian classes, Portuguese classes, Chinese classes, Japanese classes and many other opportunities for diverse multicultural experiences. Inlingua will have you speaking in your new language from the very first class! Inlingua international is one of the world’s leading language training organizations boasting 322 language centers in 37 countries across Europe, Africa, Asia, North and South America. The global availability of inlingua centers ensures that language learners everywhere are taught according to the same method and in the same high quality. Over five decades, inlingua has helped millions of clients at more than 300 language centers located around the world. Inlingua’s global strategy and contacts, balanced with local proximity to the customer make a perfect combination of vision and action which embodies the inlingua system. Inlingua was founded in 1968 as a Swiss company, forty-six years ago. In 1994, twenty-nine (29) years ago, I was contacted by Kelly Kelean, Director at inlingua school of languages in Chicago, while I was a Lombard resident homeowner at 502 South Westmore Avenue at the corner of Washington Boulevard in District 5, York Township, Du Page County, Illinois 60148-3028 USA. Kelly Kelean called me from her Chicago Office because inlingua international was hiring language consultants to teach and train clients to speak French, Spanish, English, Portuguese and other languages in 1994. During the telephone call, Kelly Kelean asked me to drive into Chicago and complete the inlingua employment forms to work as a language consultant teaching and training clients in foreign languages and cross-cultural immersion experiences. Since I was already a Certified Legal Interpreter and Translator, Kelly Kelean suggested that I also speak to Kara and Tara at the inlingua interpreting and translation division downtown in Chicago. Kelly Kelean, Director at inlingua Chicago also introduced me to Joyce, the Chief Executive Director at the Chicago Office. I was hired immediately as a Mobile Inlingua Consultant who commuted driving to visit clients on-site in order to teach and train the students in other languages and cultures at work. I was offered Part-Time employment with an hourly wage of $18 per hour, plus car travel expenses such as gasoline, parking, Illinois tollway fees, etc. Kelly Kelean did not provide inlingua health insurance benefits or pension plans for me as an inlingua commuting language consultant, interpreter or translator when she hired me in 1994 to work for inlingua international Chicago. Kelly Kelean had French-American corporate business clients who were investing in their employees French language skills and multicultural training for deployment overseas. For instance, American National Can was based in Rosemont near O’Hare Airport which required for me to travel on-site at the corporate headquarters to teach French languages and culture to Management and the Human Resources Division employees who were planning to be transferred to Paris, France. In addition, inlingua also assigned private language tutoring on location for individuals. Kelly Kelean referred me to Christine Alinat and her oldest daughter for private English lessons at home where they lived in Woodridge, DuPage County, Illinois. Christine Alinat was married to Philippe Alinat, a French executive who was a Chemical Engineer working in DuPage County, Illinois. The Alinat family were French nationals from Lyons, France who were relocated to Illinois while they were living and working here in the USA. Christine Alinat told me that she had lived in Morocco, Algeria with her family from France. The Alinat family were involved with the Alliance Française de Chicago and the Union de français à l’étranger (UFEC) in Chicago, Illinois, USA. On July 4th, 1997, I had a Fourth of July Luncheon Celebration at our Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow with six (6) Special Guests–Chemical Engineer Philippe Alinat, his wife Christine, their two daughters, her Mother and her Sister visiting from Lyons, France. I invited French-speaking guests since I was Tutoring the Alinat’s oldest daughter at their home in Woodridge, Illinois USA. My traditional American Fourth of July Luncheon was catered by Kentucky Fried Chicken Original Recipe, Corn on the Cob, Mashed Potatoes with Gravy, Macaroni and Cheese, Cole Slaw, Corn Bread, and Soda Beverages, non-alcoholic in the afternoon. My Father, Mr. Roberto Hung Juris Doctor, was disabled and bedridden upstairs on the second floor on a Gastro-Intestinal tube and could not join our Fourth of July Luncheon. I prepared for him Mashed Potatoes and Small Pieces of Chicken, Corn Bread. My Father, a Lombard resident homeowner became disabled after he purchased the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow on September 2, 1996. Four months afterwards on December 22, 1996, my Father was severely injured at home by a blunt hit to the head resulting in Traumatic Brain Injury and an Aneurysm surgically treated by a neurosurgery at Good Samaritan Advocate Hospital in Downers Grove, Illinois USA. My Special Guests understood my predicament with DuPage Home Care Physicians Dr. Thomas Cornwell M.D., Nancy Minch R.N. and Jennifer, a Certified Nurse’s Assistant from Woodridge who lived at Seven Bridges in Illinois, USA. Philippe and Christine Alinat were members of the Alliance Française de Chicago and also members of the Union des Français à l’Étranger since Christine’s family had lived in Morocco, Algeria, as well as in Lyons, France. All together there were eight (8) people present for my Fourth of July Luncheon in Lombard during 1997, including my Father, Mr. Roberto Hung who was a senior invalid at home upstairs in our Lombard home where it used to be at 502 South Westmore-Meyers Road and Washington Boulevard near St. Pius X Catholic Church. Everyone, including Philippe Alinat and his family, enjoyed the afternoon Fourth of July in 1997 and took pictures of us in our Lombard home, District 5, York Township, DuPage County, Illinois 60148-3028 USA. As far as I can remember, the Alinats did not provide for me or my family in Lombard another invitation since they were in Woodridge, Illinois. I was not invited to any other event with Philippe, Christine, and her two daughters in Woodridge, Illinois USA. Although I remember Philippe and Christine Alinat in 1997, I have not seen them in twenty-six (26) years. I speak French fluently and travelled to Paris and Strasbourg in France during 1995. ©2012 GHung’s Blog WordPress. All Rights Reserved. Amitié Francophone After I succeeded in completing all my inlingua language assignments which included teaching, cross-cultural training, interpreting, and translating in French, Spanish, Portuguese, and English, Kelly Kelean and Joyce referred me to another inlingua consulting location at Public Access Information, also known as PIA, Inc. in the River North area, at the corner of 810 North Orleans Street and Chicago Avenue, next to the Grainger Building at 820 North Orleans Street, near the Cabrini Green neighborhood. The Office of Tourism for the State of Illinois had a Touch Network Project with Lee Seitelman, the Principal software developer in Oak Park, partner of Scott Parent’s French-American enterprise in Chicago which used multilingual Touch Kiosks providing Illinois Travel Tourism Information for travelers, customers, clients, and hotel guests in Chicago, Boston, New York, San Francisco, Miami, etc. PIA Inc. was employing Multilingual Translators On-Site For Post-Machine Translation provided by Lee Seitelman, Patrick Dimperio, Larry Goldstick, David, Graphic Designer Larry, Alison, Mike, Lead Salesman Glen Koltz, Salesman Larry, Kiosk Runner Eric, and the Public Accountant Tony Ruzicka from Westmont, Du Page County, Illinois. While I was working for PIA, Inc. in the River North area, commuting and driving long-distance from Lombard in Du Page County, I met Patty Jacobs who was a Spanish translator living in Glendale Heights with her husband Bob Jacobs and her two sons. Patty Jacobs has studied Spanish in Honduras and was a member of the Chicago Area Translators and Interpreters Association (CHICATA). Patty Jacobs and I worked together for the Public Access Information Inc. Touch Network during the State of Illinois Office of Tourism Touch Kiosk Project in 1994. This inlingua language consulting on-location assignment required Post-Editing Machine Translation from English into Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, and German on-site for the State of Illinois Office of Tourism Touch Kiosks for Travelers, Hotel Guests, Customers, Clients, and the General Public. I was hired as the Language Coordinator and Post-Editor for Machine Translation in Spanish, French, Portuguese and English. However, I was hired by inlingua for an hourly rate of only $18 an hour without any health insurance benefits, pension or vacation time to work on-location for PIA, Inc. in the River North area, next to the Grainger’s Building. The Shakespeare Theatre Company used to be located in the same building. In addition, the Culinary Institute of Chicago and SRAM at 1333 North Kingsbury, was across the street from this building parking lot, where my GEO TRACKER was parked and vandalized while I worked for PIA Inc. in Chicago from 1994 through 2000, for six years.
